being a fan of hiphop music, i would always take notice of the really expensive, gaudy, and sometimes ostentatious pieces rap artists would wear. like the one time i met LL Cool J at his children’s book signing (why he even put one out, is still a mystery)… i fell awestruck at the sight of his diamond encrusted cross… but only because i knew that if i jacked him for it, i’d be able to pay off my mastercard.
